| Comments : |
There is a bit of a gap of time from when I received P3 until I sent it back because I had to wait for James to get affidavit of support done and sent to me.
Interview was pretty easy and straight forward. waiting to get through security was a bit of a process. |

No interview needed Yay. Took a little longer then expected to get approved. Approved on the 12th July, letter of approval arrived 4days later on the 16th. Card received 18th
Since I had my AP and EAD I was not worried. Still very happy that this is over for, for now. must remember to apply to removed conditions several months before the 2yrs expire date. |

| Embassy Review : |
It was pretty straight forward. Hardest part is the waiting, not losing your paperwork on the way (almost left it at outside channel 7 studios) and choosing the right elevator (which I didn't the first time).
Once you get past security and make it to where you're supposed to be and take a ticket it is just a matter of waiting and watching others on their journey.
I don't remember the questions as I have waited too long to write this review but they were easy enough. You will go from one widow to another, get your finger prints taken then eventually after alot of waiting you will get the O.K. and you will walk out of there with the biggest smile on your face and feel able to breath.
All round a pleasant journey.

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
